I know exactly what you mean. My post wasn't getting nearly as recognized as they were before. And when I keep looking at it, it seems to decrease a little every time. Granted I'm only earning $4-$7 a post, but I feel overall, I'm earning less. I will say I've noticed a smaller payout from comments this week vs last week. I think because everyone went on an upvote spree last week and drained all of their power (since they were used to voting a lot), so they barely had any for this week, and now they're rationing. Just my $0.02.
